“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(During the past week Jane has made a spectacular improvement in the use of her right arm, with lesser but steady improvement in the left. There have been other good signs physically; she has also improved considerably in her daily walks, etc. The body changes for the better seem to be long-lasting—already they have existed for longer periods than any others in recent years. Needless to say we are both very pleased.)

It is obvious not only that Ruburt is improving but that one important area of the body has begun to clear itself to a large degree. Do you agree with me?

The arm, by its sudden freedom, also serves as a model to Ruburt consciously, and also for the rest of the body to follow. He is aware of the feeling of freedom consciously, physically, as a portion now of daily experience and comparison. He did not have this before, and so it is highly important symbolically and literally that improvements will continue and be used as a model.

These improvements are happening in such a way that no undue stress is placed upon any particular group of muscles or tendons, and yet there will be some periods in which feelings of unaccustomed activity are present, and perhaps some tenderness, as muscles and tendons are gradually activated.

These feelings will also be accompanied by sensations of warmth however, and so should be accepted and recognized as new signs of mobility and action. He can begin to try to feel greater strength now in the right arm, and all improvements on the right side are being picked up by the left.

Some of these subsidiary beliefs are already beginning to melt, hence the improvements noted. Others await only physical proving-out in experience, and the time necessary in your terms for the body to readjust at an even rate—that is, an overall body of motion will be newly established.

Now that is changing. The changing entails adjustments at all body levels, so there are in-between periods, so to speak, physically in your terms, as all portions of the body react to any given improvement.

In the meantime Ruburt is aware of sensation that before was largely deadened. The old condition had its own balance. The improvements will follow their own rhythm as the body sets up a new balance in compensation. Some of this has to do with energy patterns and flows.

The hardest part, however, is over, for the sensation of freedom has been physically introduced through the arm into the system—and that message echoes throughout the system. Ruburt no longer believes he needs the symptoms. The condition therefore is beginning to fade. It will not take anything like the same amount of time to vanish as it did to establish itself. There will be sudden improvements on the physical level, as with the arm, but before that occurred there were changes in beliefs. There will be other almost unnoticed improvements that will not show until they “suddenly appear” as a major breakthrough—and these have already begun.

Badminton or pounding the pillow should definitely be started this week. He is thinking in terms of improvements now, though, and this is an important development. Do not, in your case, over-remind him of what he is “supposed” to do, for he takes this to mean that you do not expect him to do it. He knows well now of your loving concern, and feels your love, and your love-making endeavors are extremely important to both of you.

Make sure you “suitably” recognize his improvements. There will be more of them. But again, periods of readjustment which should be accepted as such. The mobility of the fingers is much better when typing—something he did not mention.

His dream recall will also improve, because he feels more secure in physical areas.
